Bernheim Original is a seven-year-old Kentucky straight wheat whiskey from Heaven Hill Distillery. Wheat, not corn, is the main grain in its mash. Heaven Hill calls it "the first new style of American Whiskey" since Prohibition. It first came out in 2005. The name honors the Bernheim Distillery in Louisville.
Each batch is drawn from 100 or fewer barrels. They age for seven years in Heaven Hill's open rickhouses. The whiskey is then bottled at 90 proof.
In the glass it shows a bright amber color. You will smell a mild sweetness, with vanilla and honey. Toffee leads on the palate, with hints of berries and spice. The finish is warm and elegant, with toasted oak.
It has a long list of honors. It won Double Gold at the 2023 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. In 2024 it took Double Gold and Best in Show at the TAG Global Spirits Awards, with 91 points. It also won Gold at the 2024 ASCOT Awards.
If you enjoy wheated bourbon, this is a natural next step. Sip it neat or over one big cube. It also makes a soft, round Manhattan. Pair it with caramel desserts, dark chocolate or a mild cheese.
